Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2025-100: Justice Will Be Adequate

You may have heard the biblical quotation where God says, “Justice is mine.”  I don’t know about you, but I find that somewhat frustrating when I see all of the destructive evil going on in our society.  You need to understand that this, like so many other historic statements regarding violence and justice, is to restrain us from destroying ourselves and our culture in our rage.

Let me assure you that if we can achieve even partial justice, then our goal will be reached, and our needs will be satisfied.

The problem with vengeance is it lowers us to the level of the deep state Cabal, and it’s minions.  It destroys our integrity and our right to see things corrected.  Justice on the other hand, based on the rule of law, and applied in carefully considered logic instead of hot reaction, will produce results more than adequate.  Keep in mind that justice includes the death penalty.  It is not just a way of being kind and compassionate to criminals.  True justice measures out true punishment.  It is the punishment of justice not of revenge.

So be calm, but stay focused.  If you have the opportunity to be on a jury, act with integrity.  Let justice prevail.  It will be enough.
